How can I make others like me?

Mimicking for Friends

We tend to like those who we perceive as similar to us. Because of this, we naturally tend to mimic the beahvior of people around us (e.g., speech inflections and physical expressions).

So, next time you're on a first date and you want your date to like you, subtly mimic his or her expressions. This works in any interpersonal communication (i.e., interview, friends, etc.).
